This  world-famous  and  interesting  hos- 
telry is  a  well-appointed,  twelve-story 
structure,  thoroughly  modern,  strictly 
fireproof  and  equipped  with  every 
facility  for  the  comfort  of  its  guests. 
Being  a  women's  hotel,  woman's  wit 
has  been  used  to  provide  the  little 
necessities  and  comforts  so  much  a- 
preciated  by  her.  The  permanent  guest 
Ifinds  all  those  little  attentions  and  con- 
veniences so  hard  to  obtain  outside  of 
her  own  home.  The  stranger  finds  that 
genial  atmosphere  which  is  unusual  and 
therefore  appreciated  by  women  who 
visit  this  city  alone  and  desire  temporary 
hotel  accommodations. 

The  location  of  the  HOTEL  MARTHA 
'WASHINGTON  is  all  that  could  be 
desired.  It  is  right  in  the  center  of  the 
shopping  district  and  is  convenient  to 
svery  transportation  line. 


The  Broadway  surface  cars  are  bu 
two  blocks  away.  The  29th  Stree 
crosstown  surface  car  passes  the  dooi 
connecting  with  the  ferries,  by  whic 
passengers  on  the  Lackawanna,  Erie 
Jersey  Central  and  other  Western  Rail 
roads  are  transported  to  and  from  Man 
hattan.  The  Fifth  Avenue  stages 
traversing  one  of  the  most  interestinj 
thoroughfares  in  the  world,  are  on 
block  west.
